The  new Good Toy Guide 2008 / 2009

GTGfrontpage09.png

Click on the magazine above to view this year's Good Toy Guide - this is a large file, so please be patient.  If you would like to order a glossy magazine copy (£2.95) they are available from our office in London by calling 0207 255 4600 or, you can download the Good Toy Guide Flyer and order form by clicking here.  Please ask about our discount for bulk copies.

As Parents, we are often confronted with lots of toys to choose from and no-one to help us to choose the right one for our child's particular stage and development. This is where the Good Toy Guide can offer you some help! All of the toys in this Guide are tested by children and the conclusion and comments come from the children. Watching the children and the pleasure they get from the toys they are playing with is how we know what to tell you about each product.

Over the years, the National Association of Toy and Leisure Libraries has developed a very good working relationship with the Toy Trade, who trust us to test their products in a fair and thorough way with the hundreds of children who use our toy libraries all over the UK. We hope that you find this guide useful when you are selecting toys for children in any setting - whether this be the toy library, a small or large group setting, a childminder's home, a playgroup, a school or an extended school club, but especially if you are looking for that special toy for that special child in your life!

We estimate that at least 250 families and as many as 600 children take part in out appraisal process. The most important point is - it is their opinions that matter! Please note that the toys tested in 2008 are toys that will be on sale now , but will be available throughout 2009 and beyond!
